Excitingly, over the June/July school holidays the Opals and the Boomers trained and held their Olympic Games Selection Camp at our state-of-the-art Sports and Aquatic Centre.
The players, coaches and team at Basketball Australia loved the facilities and we loved having the Australian Opals and the Australian Boomers at our school. It was particularly special for us when our Ivanhoe Edge basketball students and our Girls’ and Boys’ Firsts Basketball teams had the opportunity to watch the Opals and Boomers train, and meet some of the players. What a great lead up to the 2024 Olympics and such an honour for our school to have played a part in Olympic history once again.
We will be cheering on the Opals and the Boomers at the Paris Olympics
Training on our basketball courts in our Sports and Aquatic Centre will now be a little more exciting and special for our students!
